Great, sorry I missed the link

No worries, I realize now it wasn't the easiest to see. lol

I’ve always loved that color of wheels, looks great.

Thanks danno! I adore them! It's gonna take a special wheel in the future to replace them. haha

I like the idea of extending the paddle shifters, but i have a TDI so the shape is different from the GTI and I haven't found ones that fit the standard Golf properly.

Where did you get those form?

I mentioned it in my post, but the link is tricky to see.

They should have something that will work. As long as you don't mind them coming from Australia.

Great to hear!
Make sure you get an oiled filter for it, we are a lot dustier and dryer than they are in Vancouver. Every car we've seen with a CTS intake has an inlet full of dust/dirt.

Thanks for the heads up.

So anyone who follows my IG is probably already up to date on this stuff I'm about to post but for those you don't.... or if you just like eye candy pics.

Ordered a set of DSG paddles from dsgpaddles.com. Did not realize they were in Australia until I got my tracking information, so they took a smidge longer than expected, not to mention the Red Carbon Fiber was out of stock and I had to wait for them to get replenished. Super happy with them though. I know the 3M stick on stuff isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I wanted red carbon to accent the interior, and finding red carbon factory replacements left me empty handed for the price I was willing to pay.

Either way I love them, both visually and functionally.







Beyond that I ended up ordering an AWE Tuning Track Edition Exhaust 2 weeks ago. Big thanks to Natty54 for getting that to me as fast as he did. Installed it last friday with the help of a friend, or rather a friend installed it with the help of me.
Couldn't be happier with it. Sounds amazing, and the larger tips have really set off the back end of the car I feel.









One more shot just because...

Thanks! Loving the tire recommendation from you! Super responsive and fairly quiet. Very happy!

Great to hear!

Also ended up ordering a CTS Turbo Intake yesterday, it was on sale, so couldn't pass it up. :P

Re: It took 5 years to get...

What tires you running?

I ended up going with a set of Firestone Firehawk Indy500's, 225/35R19.

The red and gold look fantastic together!

Pretty sure I saw ya on Deerfoot today. Looks good!

If it was anywhere between 32nd Ave and Airdrie then there is a good chance, don't see many other Red mk7's along that stretch. Thanks!
